    Carlos can only dream of a left foot like Riva's.

    I'm quite certain that he is left-footed. I know that in the Brazil vs Scotland match at Spain 82, he lobbed the keeper with his left foot.

    I assume your Hans Müller is the Hansi Müller I remember. I saw him chip a ball over the GK (Maier?) that was simply amazing. I've never seen anything like it, before or since.

    I can't remember now if he was left-footed, but there was an exceptional Icelandic player in the BL at roughly the same time. Anyone have a name for me?

    Yes Hansi Müller, the same guy I meant. Great technique.

    The best icelandic player was Asgeir Sigurvinsson. Not sure if he was left-footed, though. He played for Bayern and Stuttgart in the 1980s.

    Could it be Hertha's Eyfoljur Sverisson? I dont recall him being left-footed though...but I was very young back then and very new to footy.

    Could be, but he didn't play at the same time as Hansi Müller (70s/80s).

    Bentex, are you the guy that runs that website on Hungarian football players? If yes, outstanding stuff, especially on the legends videos. Czibor's goal in '61 against Benfica is simply stunning.
